StarHub TV's TFC Pack gives Filipinos a taste of home

ANC, TFC and Cinema One Global bundled for complete Filipino coverage

Singapore, 18 October 2012 – StarHub TV’s launch of TFC Pack
tomorrow will allow Filipinos here to keep up-to-date on current
affairs back home. TFC Pack which bundles news, infotainment and
entertainment channels from the Philippines, offers Filipinos living
and working in Singapore comprehensive coverage of what is cooking in
their home country. The pack comprises of ANC (StarHub TV Channel
143), Cinema One Global (StarHub TV Channel 145), and The Filipino
Channel (TFC) (StarHub TV Channel 144). Both ANC and TFC are channels
from ABN-CBS, the largest media and entertainment company in the Philippines.

ANC, also known as ABS-CBN News Channel, is an established English
language news channel dishing out 24/7 ‘live’ coverage with
round-the-clock updates and in-depth analysis on key events in the
Philippines. Key programme genres include ‘live’ local news, current
affairs, business and money matters, talk shows, technology and lifestyle.

The Filipino Channel, a non-stop infotainment channel presented in
Tagalog, is an existing channel on StarHub TV. Together, the three
Filipino channels from TFC Pack will provide Filipinos with a unique
connection to their homeland.

To augment the strong partnership, StarHub co-presented ASAP 2012
with ABN-CBS in Singapore on 14 October 2012. The hugely-popular
concert which featured more than 40 A-list Filipino artistes,
performed to a 6000 strong audience held at the Max Pavilion. “ASAP
has a massive Filipino following here and StarHub is thrilled to work
with our valued partner ABS-CBN, to showcase this spectacular concert
to our loyal customers. At the same time, we are boosting our Filipino
offerings with the launch of TFC Pack,” said Ms Iris Wee, Vice
President of Home Solutions & Content, StarHub. “With ANC, TFC and
Cinema One bundled in one convenient pack, our Filipino customers will
have their news, infotainment and entertainment viewing needs covered.”

To allow customers to sample the channels, StarHub TV is offering a
free preview for ANC, TFC and Cinema One Global, from 9am on 19
October to 12pm on 31 October 2012.
